• 14 Oct 2021 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, gender issues are very important, but we do not talk about them in this country. The Constitution of Kenya was passed over 10 years ago. However, up to now, the Gender Bill has not been passed by Parliament. Despite the former Chief Justice asking for dissolution of Parliament, nothing has happened. That includes the Bill that I have sponsored which is still in the Senate. When I finished my ‘O’ Level, out of the top 10, seven were girls’ schools. However, if you look at the leadership in this country, the representation is not proportional. We have ... view

When I started processing this Bill, it was October, 2018. Our Senate Majority Leader then was the Senator for Elgeyo-Marakwet County, Sen. Murkomen. I oppose the assertion that because I am in leadership now, I have sponsored this Bill. Fighting corruption is a passion I have. I had it even before I joined this Senate. I have fired many people on grounds of corruption before in my former job. Even the Prompt Payment Bill, despite it ... view
